Breast augmentation before and after — real patient review | UNE Plastic Surgery

I'm honestly so comfortable now that I catch myself lying on my side without thinking, or even trying to jog for a second before catching myself.

Right after surgery, raising my arms all the way up over my head was tough because of the tightness,

but now I just feel a little stiffness, and I can do that full arm-raise motion with no issue at all.

More than anything, there was hardly any pain.

I get now why Dr. Kim Uigeon has such a reputation for keeping the discomfort to a minimum — I felt it firsthand.

Since he specializes in breast surgery, the whole procedure felt really stable and controlled,

and my surgery only took 41 minutes, which made it a lot less stressful for me.

The swelling and bruising were seriously so much less than I expected, and overall the healing process was pretty manageable.

That said, once the swelling went down after about a month, my size ended up looking a bit... okay, actually a lot smaller than right after surgery,

so I do have a small lingering thought of 'maybe I should've gone a bit bigger…'

Still, I'm happy overall with the pain level, the swelling, and how things healed,

so I'd say this is definitely worth considering if you're thinking about getting breast surgery.
